Camming your SRT 392/Scatpack. Is it worth it?

[@quickbrick2594]

Hey guys, that is my car in the vid. One thing I want to clarify is the car picked up 35 WHP with the cam (on Peitz Performance Mustang Dyno)over the baseline dyno which was Full Bolt-On on 93, so the total gain with FBO and the cam on E85 is between 60 to 70 WHP over STOCK. The car was making 456HP/467TQ SAE Corrected on Dynojet, FBO on E85 before the cam. The car made 428HP/432TQ on that same Dynojet when stock, 4 years ago. I have not made it back to that dyno since having the cam installed two weeks ago, but would anticipate around 485-490-ish WHP on that same Dynojet with the cam. The car went a best 11.56 @ 117 FBO(w/stock cam) on E85 in +400 DA at 4555lb race weight. I am expecting the car to pick up .2 and around 2 mph with the cam, which would put it in 11.30's at close to 120, which may not set the world on fire, but is pretty good IMO for a full weight SRT 392 Charger. Should surprise some folks none the less.

[@RacerX9]

Quick Brick .. the car is definitely a beast buddy 👍. Can’t wait to see it in action at the track

[@johnnykilroy9399]

Ok this makes more since I was figuring there is no way this car isn’t putting down at least 490-500 whp with those mods. Usually 392s with full bolt ons and a cam put down that much power to the wheels.

Stack it up against a stock 392 let’s see how much of a difference his mods make

[@quickbrick2594]

I can tell you the car low 12.'s @ 114 to.115 when the car was stock on a 20" Drag Radial. With FBO(stock cam) on 93, the car went a best of 11.62 @ 117.2. That same set up on E85 went 11.56 @ 117.8. Just got car back with cam less than 2 weeks ago, but am going to track this Saturday unless it gets called off due to all the Coronavirus stuff. Last time I ran X's Cat on Black key(stock cam) he put about 1/2 car to 1 car on me. As you saw in the vid, with the cam, I put a full car on him every time, so the car picked up about 2.5 to 3 car lengths over the stock cam with FBO, which should translate to 2 to 3 tenths and a commensurate MPH gain in 1/4. I can tell you the car is considerably faster with the cam over the car FBO w/ stock cam, and I have already pulled Mrs X's Scat Pack Shaker by about 2 cars on the same night I initially ran X's Hellcat in Black key mode(when he pulled me). Hope that helps.

[@clauderatliff697]

I would love to do the same set up like yours, where did you order your cam from?

[@quickbrick2594]

@@clauderatliff697 I got the cam through Peitz Performance Tunes in Cypress, TX. They also handled the install and tuning. Name of the cam is CD-01 and is ground by Comp Cams. It was Spec'd by Brian Mason(BMason on KZbin) and is loosely based on their Comp 270 grind but with more aggressive lobe profiles and tighter LSA and LCA. Cam was designed to retain driveability as well.as the low end and mid range TQ and HP production that is the 392's calling card while significantly enhancing top end HP taking better advantage of the capability of the Apache cylinder head flow.

Those races are actually in the same video I raced X's Hellcat in Black key mode where he pulled me by about a car(this was in March last year). My car with FBO(stock cam) on E85 and Drag Pack at 4555lb race weight went a best of 11.56 at 117.8 in +400 DA back in January. Mrs. X's Scat has gone a best of 11.79 @ 116 in -500 DA on my Drag Pack at race weight of around 4350lbs, weekend before last at Demonology Call-Out. Against X's Hellcat in Black.Key mode, after the cam my car picked up about 3 cars total...going from a car behind(FBO/stock cam on 93) to a full car ahead(FBO/cam/E85). Keeping in mind that X's car in 500HP mode is making more than 500 HP by virtue of its supporting mods. He also has 3.09 gear(vs stock Hellcat 2.62) and was on his 17" Racestars w/ Mickey Thompson.305/45 ET street R's which are shorter than the 20" 305/35.Nitto's I was on.

In my hellcat "black key mode " feels really unnatural. And what I mean by that is that the engine is made for 707 hp and tuned for such and detuning the engine (electronically via computer) to 500hp is in no way, shape or form a tuned version of that engine. My stock scat pack Challenger I had felt faster then that. That being said, this is the most tasteful 392 upgrade ive seen on youtube thus far!

[@6ixspeedstang186]

Ghostmee the stock scatpack probably felt a little bit faster because it’s lighter than the black key hellcat. But then again it could just be a mind thing.

[@RacerX9]

Ghostmee .. yes his car is beautifully modded 👍.. and quick

[@quickbrick2594]

@Ghostmee Main reason we were running his Hellcat in Black Key mode was that we had done it previously before the cam install, so we just wanted to see a true apples to apples comparison vs when we ran before. Last time my car was FBO w/stock cam on 93 and the race was close but he was able to put about a 1/2 car to a car on me. Keep in mind, his car even in Black Key mode is actually more like 530 to.540 HP mode due to his supporting mods and he also has the 3.09 gears vs stock Hellcat's 2.62(which makes a huge difference on the Cats). All in all, it was encouraging for me to see my car pull Xcesiv this time, especially up top where the stock cam 392 runs into a wall.👍

[@ghostmee6330]

@@6ixspeedstang186 Have you owned either car? The scat is lighter yes, but the feel of that cars power is superior to the Hellcat in black key mode. Its not a mind thing either, when I went to test drive my Hellcat my initial thoughts were my scat pack is faster why would I spend all this money on this car? Then i remembered the whole black keyfob/red keyfob thing. And 500 hp mode is still more Hp than the stock 485 on the scat pack.

I know those 2 are very hard to accomplish in these cars, but if you were me and want to hook and still have a little rain traction which tire would you pick? Also, do you drive your car in 500hp when it’s raining or any other tricks? I’m in Florida so the summer rains are unavoidable, they pop up in a second and bomb you for an hour & then they’re gone.

Hey brother, that is my car in the vid. Thanks for the kind words man. With the tune, bolt-ons and cam, the car picked up right at 63WHP over stock. Keep in mind that chassis Dyno's can be a little finicky with numbers, but it's safe to assume 60 to 70 WHP over stock. So I would assume the car is making somewhere around 555-560 at the flywheel.

Mike Reeves Love those widebodys! 🔥 I’m in the same situation with my 392 but I love it so i’m trying not to sell it. I would recommend on deciding whether on how much power you want to make. If you want crazy power then get the hellcat. But if its just going to be a stock hellcat then hell with that. My 392 charger is also cammed and making about the same horsepower as quick bricks. You will not regret camming the 392. You can build up your car and make it just as badass as a hellcat. Just depends on how much power and how much money you want to spend

[@quickbrick2594]

@Mike Reeves Well, main reason is the car is paid for(bought new in 2015). I knew the Long Tubes, exhaust, Unlocked PCM and assorted bolt-ons I've accumulated over the last 4 years would work well with a cam and while the cam upgrade isn't terribly cheap, it's a Hell of a lot less than going into debt on another vehicle, even taking into account the equity in my car...plus I get to stay married😉👍

@RacerX I absolutely love the videos you put out on the scat packs. I bought a widebody in Jan 2020 and all your videos helped me come to that decision, while I would love a hellcat right now, wasn't in the budget. Living in CA I'm very limited to what I can do to the car. The best investment I've done so far is I've installed AE delete plates and cut out the mid mufflers, couldn't be happier with the way it sounds now. Recommendations from my mechanic were cold air, throttle body and tuner. Couple questions: how important is the intake porting and how much do you think roughly? I did a bolt on CAI and tuner on my 8.1L Suburban, made a world of difference, this car is a bit different as you well know lol. Also would you happen to know where to start to find the right tuner guy in my area. Live in Northern CA, just not sure my mechanic is the right guy for that portion. Keep up the great videos, I enjoy every single one of them, also Mrs. X is rocking it!!! Thank you for your time in advance...

[@RacerX9]

Anthony Gomez .. thank you my friend. The tune is critical and most really good tuners can tune it remotely. My guy (Peitz Performance) is out of Houston but can tune remotely as long as you have a dyno available in your area. In porter intake will help but will likely not pick up a ton .. perhaps 8-10hp .. the mid muffler delete is a nice mid and cost is minimal 👍

[@emperor002002]

Nice, I like the chargers. Wonder what would have been if SRT added AWD? 😶

[@parkermiddleton1028]

I’d do the cam just for the sound tbh

[@TonyTheTruckGuy]

Awesome video man! I think this is definitely the route to go with a 392

[@RacerX9]

Thanks buddy.. Keep up the truck content.

[@savedbyhim7]

Ok now I know which one I’m getting !! Awesome !!

[@babybull955]

I wonder how it would stack up on a stock hellcat, would the hellcat walk it or will it turn into a driver's race?

[@quickbrick2594]

@Ghost - As the car sits it is probably between a Stock 392 & Stock Hellcat in terms of power production. The 392's are factory rated at 485 Flywheel HP, while Hellcats are of course 707/717 Flywheel HP. My car is likely making somewhere just shy of 600 Flywheel HP. Stock Hellcat Chargers typically trap 124-ish(give or take) in the 1/4 in good air. My car should trap around 120. That said, if I catch a Stock Hellcat asleep at the tree, my car is fast enough that he will have his work cut out for him to catch me. All that said, the short answer to.your question is...Yes, a stock Hellcat is faster. There is however also something to be said for a stronger than average running N/A, 4 door sedan IMO. 😁👍👊

[@plymouthdie-castreplicas]

Scatpack is a top for me. Anyway, I like that color combination of the Charger. It reminds me of Viper GTS;-) It was a typical paint.

[@RacerX9]

I agree.. it’s a great looking paint scheme

[@ericwang604]

I did a supercharge (maggasion kit) on my 2016 6.4 menual challenger srt392. I did a comparison with hellcat. I feel my 6.4 it's way faster and snappier then the hellcat for the first 4 gears. Hellcat 6.2 it's way too smooth and lack of the antibiotic rage for the first 4 gears 🤔🤔.my 6.4 gets seriously responsed while I switch gears. 🙄 Whats the point to buy a hellcat. 🤔 🤔 🤔

[@eddieaustinbex]

Very nice car sounds good

[@carlstevens4981]

The car looks amazing, but you cant beat the sound of the cammed srt

[@robd1859]

A cam is not usually bought to try to fix the power. They're usually bought to fix the sound of the car that the company screwed up when they built the motor these Factory muscle cars should come from the factory sounding like the cars from the 60s

[@moescolla]

Great video and info 🤜🏾🤛🏾

[@RacerX9]

moescolla aka Mobley .. thank you my friend

[@pedromartinez3526]

I wanna put this guys mods on my 392🔥🔥 Where's the list at?

[@Bizzair1990]

Hearing how high that 2nd gear held was nice. I'm so inline with mine my internal clock was like *boom* and it held it for like a second longer threw me off aha.

[@jamessneed8789]

He's making more than 35 hp

[@RacerX9]

It sure seems like .. although the dyno says otherwise

[@quickbrick2594]

You are correct...Car picked up 35 WHP with the cam over and above FBO baseline(w/ stock cam). I apologize I didn't do a better job of explaining that in the vid. My bad:-)

[@ForcedfedFords]

@@quickbrick2594 badass car, and quick brick lol. Love my friend's bolt-on + tune 392, makes 423whp. I'm a mustang guy (684whp fbo Roush 5.0) but appreciate all American muscle. What's your Insta?

[@justiniannarone6051]

To make runs more efficient get some cheap walkies to call it. Can keep windows up and here it fine with loud car

[@AirsoftHemi]

Ole boy on the right spat all over Racerx at 6:53 when talking

[@ahoneyman]

5k for a cam swap and probably another 5k in bolt ons. At that point why not just go Hellcat? The warranty is voided anyway on the Scat.

[@JoeRiollano]

Really enjoyed watching this.

[@RacerX9]

Thank you Joey

[@shawn3596]

This video was over 2 years ago was the cam still worth it bc I have a 392 and want to do that but did it cost more in long run? Did you have any problems out of it ?

[@Spacesuit_Charlie]

I would love to know the same thing.

[@tr3ynag4ta]

Almost sounds like the old school 440 🔥

[@RJZJR1]

would have went beast mode. little to mild ... need the choppy idle. jmo. very nice SRT.

[@jeffreynye3019]

Racer, I gotta tell ya, the chargers are really really growing on me. ( I just bought my first dodge 3 months ago, SP Challenger, love it!). Wanna ask ya why you went charger over Challenger for a hellcat? Mostly because you already had a chalky in the household? If it weren't for that, would you have opted for the Challenger? Curious.

[@DjLilWolfieBeatz]

@KZbin’N on a budget vs racerx $10000 race challenge??? That would be a banger.

[@OmarMartinez-wp6nj]

Glad to see the 392 doing work! What color code of blue is that? Beautiful car 😎👍

[@ShovelMonkey]

Would you post the specs on those wheels? And the cam card if he's willing to provide that info? (I am just generally curious, can't really do anything to my 392 Charger here in Commiefornia, but the Charger is just my daily driver, the Barracuda is my go-fast toy). And time slips, definitely time slips...

[@quickbrick2594]

@1968 Barricuda - The wheels are BC Forged HCS 35//2 piece Modular Construction//20x9.5F//20x11R//Brushed Dark Black Rims & Barrels//Matte Black Face//Exposed Stainless Steel Hardware. The cam is called CD-01 and was Spec'd by a good friend of mine(BMason on KZbin) and ground by Comp Cams. Being that the cam is a propietary spec, I am not at liberty to give specifics but can tell you that it is sold through Peitz Performance Tunes in Cypress, TX. and is similar to the Comp 270 grind but has a more aggressive lobe profile, utilizes a tighter LSA and is ground on different LCA. Brian designed the cam to maintain driveability and low-end/midrange power production while acting like a longer duration cam up top to take advantage of the Apache cylinder head flow capabilities. This cam picked up Power and Torque everywhere, and didn't lose power anywhere. Cams are typically a compromise of driveability/low-end TQ & HP for top end HP, but this one really seems to be a Win/Win. I am really happy with it.👍

[@quickbrick2594]

I can also tell you that with FBO w/stock cam on a Drag Pack, the car's best 1/4 slip was: 1.64 60'//7.38 @ 94//11.56 @ 117.8 at 4555 lb Race Weight in +400' DA... Was supposed to go.to track this weekend, but the f@cking Coronavirus got it cancelled... I am expecting the car to run 11.30's at close to.120 in similar DA(+400'-ish) as her best before the cam. Car is discernibly stronger with the cam. I was actually not expecting the difference to be as stark as it was. At this juncture, it looks like it may well into the summer before tracks are open again. 😥

[@brandonwarren4614]

i decided to cam my charger since im a dodge tech and can do the work myself. the car has never seen a dyno so i have no clue what numbers it produces and i really dont care to know. lets just say im the current record holder for fastest cam only charger scat right now. unfortunately i dont have recent track videos on my youtube since i cant find anyone to record lol. remember, trap speed and et matters :)

[@RacerX9]

Damn the car is rollin 👍

[@brandonwarren4614]

@@RacerX9 11.3 at 122mph. id say shes doing well for only being cammed only lol

[@Furyataurus]

Why not do a rod and piston upgrade as well since the cam was out???

[@zd1124]

Stock transmission and converter? Car runs hard man!

[@quickbrick2594]

@zd1124 - Yes sir, still on factory Trans & Converter. Thanks brother👍👊

[@HolysauceStreams]

The reason the scat pack won is because his tire/wheel setup is better. It looks like the hellcat is running winter or all season tires.

[@RacerX9]

The hellcat had race tires.. 17” ET Street R’s in 305x45x17 .. that should have given the hellcat the advantage

[@quickbrick2594]

@Holysauce - Negative Ghostrider … as he mentions above, he was actually on ANTI-All-Seasons...He was on 17" Racestars wrapped in Mickey Thompson 305/45/17 ET Street R's(same tires he runs 9 second passes on)... Lol! :-)

[@rocsteadyification]

​@@quickbrick2594 what is the setup for the rear wheels on the track. Been over this video and the one from the 1/8th run vs MrsX' car, so many times as just love the view as you start walking the challenger. So you have 17" rims on the track setup, what tire size? I just bought a 2020 Charger Scat Pack in white and watching/listening to your car makes me want to run out and duplicate your FBO and cam setup as it's just as perfect as it gets in my mind. Make sure RacerX keeps us informed and shows you in more videos.

[@SrtChargerOldMan]

It sounds very angry love the blue stripes

[@RacerX9]

I think his car looks great too

[@quickbrick2594]

Thanks brother👍👊

[@jrellzva]

Great video content. Very Nice indeed! 💯

[@corruption1724]

Still the stock air box even with all the other mods. Bound to be a good bit of power to be freed up without the restriction. Get a JLT
